i think the best way to come off of a five day weekend is a day like today, where there isn't anyone at work at all. i've still got a fuckton to do, but no pressure so instead i'll just put my head down and make keyboard impressions in my face while i nap.

then i'll work on making that choco peppermint sitting on my desk disappear.

we'll see how i feel about getting started after that.

oh and danielle - the show was cool, but it was way way way too short. and i don't actually remember seeing dexter get pushed down; i remember that girl getting up on stage and doing something resembling leg-humping. it was weird.

work work work blah blah blah guess what i did this weekend?

that's right, a whole lotta nothing, broken up by valley of the dolls, which is a really addictive read and makes me wanna move to new york, become a star, and take some pills. michelle says the movie's good, too, so that's coming soon to a vcr near me. watched a ton of snl reruns and i may have heard wrong but isn't snl moving to e! after the new year? it doesn't make sense there. maybe mad tv and snl can't be on the same channel and that's where the shuffle comes in, but still. they better not be taking snl off of comedy central. i have no idea why this irks me so much. i'm so lame.

i'm about halfway through my first knitting project, which is a big stripey pink on pink scarf. the first couple of pieces i did, just practice type runs, and many have already heard this comparison but i put it here because it makes me chuckle, but those first couple of practice runs look like nice little pink hand-knitted maxi pads.

next on the sewing agenda is a drano cozy.

spent the night at my cousin sheila's on saturday and had a surprisingly good time. not cuz she sucks, but more because i was worried that it would be weird. we haven't talked or spent any time together (outside of that hour on xmas eve at our grandpa's) in thirteen years. and back then we didn't even talk much. we hang out like twice or something like that. and while we're very different people that went in very different directions, she and her husband and three kids are great people and it was tons of good times.

but candyland has got to go. or at least those cards that make you go back on the board and practically start over when the game is almost finished... those cards have got to go, because it drags out the fun little jaunt into hours of torture.

oh and my computer's a big piece of crap, but you knew that. finished last night's project this morning - email me if you wanna find out what it is. it's exciting, i tells ya.

and danielle, your new blog template will be done soon i swear, but that little project just came up and it had to be dealt with post haste. so there.

it's time for my keyboard nap. get outta here.
